Women in War [go to]
Australian women have done different things in different wars. See what they have done and hear about their experiences by clicking on different buttons.
Flags [go to]
Children match flags to some key allied and enemy countries in World War 1 and World War 2. They identify the countries on a world map and drag the flags to the appropriate countries. They can then ‘experiment’ with different colours on four well-known flags. (The activity uses the current flags of countries rather than the flags that were used at the time.)
Uniforms [go to]
Children use fine-motor and visual tracking skills to identify changes in uniforms over time. They create a timeline by sequencing jumbled events, and then identify the changes in uniforms over time, placing them in the correct place on the timeline. They then have to identify the key clothing and equipment of a World War 1 Australian nurse and soldier and ‘dress’ them accurately.
Puzzles [go to]
Children use hand-eye co-ordination and fine motor skills to identify shapes and place them in the correct part of a puzzle. They then use literacy skills of reading and speaking to nominate the best caption for the picture that emerges once the puzzle pieces are in place.
